3.2. Sleep Mode
*
BG950A-GL & BG951A-GL can reduce their current consumption to a lower value during the sleep mode.
The following sub-chapters describe the power saving procedure of BG950A-GL & BG951A-GL.
3.2.1. UART Application Scenario
If the host communicates with the module via UART interface, the following preconditions can let the
module enter sleep mode:
Execute
AT+QSCLK=2
to enable sleep mode.
Drive MAIN_DTR high.
Pull the PON_TRIG pin low.
The figure illustrates the connection between the module and the host.
Figure 3: Sleep Mode Application via UART Interface
Driving the module's MAIN_DTR low will wake up the module.
When the module has a URC to report, MAIN_RI
*
signal will wake up the host. See
Chapter 4.6.4
for
details about MAIN_RI
*
behavior.
AP_READY
*
will detect the sleep state of the host (can be configured to high voltage level or low
voltage level detection). See
AT+QCFG="apready"
in
document [2]
for details.
During e-I-DRX, it is recommended to use UART interface for data communication, as the use of USB
interface will increase power consumption.
